Mindful
Self-Compassion (MSC) is
an empirically supported, training program designed to cultivate the skill of
self-compassion. Based on the groundbreaking research of Kristin Neff and the
clinical expertise of Christopher Germer, MSC teaches core principles and
practices that enable participants to respond to difficult moments in their
lives with kindness, care and understanding.

Self-compassion
can be learned by anyone. It's a courageous attitude that stands up to harm,
including the harm that we unwittingly inflict on ourselves through
self-criticism, self-isolation, or self-absorption. Self-compassion provides
emotional strength and resilience, allowing us to admit our shortcomings,
motivate ourselves with kindness, forgive ourselves when needed, relate
wholeheartedly to others, and be more authentically ourselves.

Rapidly
expanding research demonstrates that self-compassion is strongly associated
with emotional wellbeing, less anxiety, depression and stress, maintenance of
healthy habits such as diet and exercise, and satisfying personal
relationships. And it’s easier than you think.
